Where do you buy your coffee? The chances are that you have your own supplier; your regular brand. I think I have told you this before – we buy our coffee straight from the place where they grow the beans. The coffee is fresher and I like this particular variety (Liberica). There are times, though, when I yearn for a different taste, and when I discovered that Dunkin’ Donuts sells coffee beans online, I got all excited.
Visit the online shop of Dunkin’ Donuts to get your own beans for home brewing. From what I have been seeing, they have five varieties: Original Blend, Dunkin Decaf, French Vanilla, Hazelnut, and Dunkin Dark. I’m leaning towards the Original Blend and Dunkin Dark. The former is made from 100% Arabica beans, and promises to give you that unique Dunkin’ coffee flavor. The latter is made from the same kind of bean, I think, but roasted more to give a stronger flavor. Both can be bought for $7.99 a pound – not a bad deal at all!
If you’re looking for something more than coffee beans, then Dunkin’ also has some equipment that can make you happy in the kitchen, making coffee. Their offerings are quite limited though – I only saw five products: two blade grinders by Braun and Krups, a Bunn brew kit (which, they claim is great for the office), a Bunn decanter, and some coffee filters by Bunn. I have no idea why they are selling these particular brands (although we know they are reliable). I think I’d get them at the store instead of the Dunkin’ shop, though.
